Steyr Steyr lp2 compact - converting to right hand.

[Gunnertrones]

Bought a lefty, and the previous owner had adjusted the large grip to his hand with a sort of white hardened material.
I sawed, grinded and sanded the shaft, and was able to convert it to my right medium hand. Also smergled down the trigger. This came out ok, and I have ordered a base for a red-dot, and a new cylinder. (Sorry, the pictures are a bit “hulter til bulter”, but assuming you got the idea guys).

from something that was as ugly as it could get, to some good looking working grips
of course there is always Rink Grips to fix it up

 

[Gunnertrones]

Yes Marflow, there are grips available on the market, and I was tempted to order one in the beginning, but the challenge to fix it (and save me the cost) is satisfying.

Probably some spartel meant for metal. It was very hard.
